"Mr. President, you're going to be at the inauguration. Some union leaders and even some kind of rank-and-file workers ended up voting for the other guy. How do you square that?" "You think you reached a deal in Gaza before you were determined as you prepared to leave the White House? Any other regrets that you have, anything you wish you would have done differently?" "His rhetoric, what he's done, what he's threatened." "It's not America, isn't it that we are? We're not going away. I'm not going away." I'm Ben Mysellis from the Midas Touch Network reporting from the Roosevelt Room in the West Wing of the White House. That's right. We have a very special interview for you today with President Joseph Biden. We will talk about his time in the White House. We will talk about his legacy. We will talk about what he intends to do in the future. We will talk about what is NATO, our NATO allies, saying to him. We will address all of that and more on the Midas Touch Network. Mr. President, I want to thank you for this interview today. We're here in the Roosevelt Room right now in the West Wing of the White House. You have a few more weeks here in the White House.

How can we lead the world without having the best infrastructure in the world, the best airports, et cetera, roads, highways, transportation, electric connectivity? How can we lead the world if we're not dealing with a single greatest threat to humanity, the emergence of climate change, we go above 1.5 degrees Celsius, we're in real trouble. Our children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren are in real trouble. If we can't move in the direction of sea to it, that we take care of the people who are most in need, for example, the idea that we charge so much for prescription drugs in America, I could take any one of you guys to have a prescription from any American drug company. Put your Air Force one on fly to any of 10 cities in America in the world. I get to the same exact drugs from a drug store, quote, unquote, in those countries that is 46% less. The only thing only protected to entity was Medicare could not negotiate drug companies. I also think it was really important that we do something about, you know, 1% of the population was defending 99% of us, and yet we weren't taking care of our veterans we
